She was confused.

Zhou Gongyu's eyes were filled with bitterness and helplessness.

"Xiaoman, I haven't married Jiang Yuefu, and I won't marry you in the future."

She didn't expect Zhou Gongyu to say this, her expression was still calm, just like her eyes, and she could not see any movement.

"I know."

But what does this have to do with her?

"Would you be fine when you come back?"

"But I don't want to go back to Jiang Mansion, I don't like it there."

"You can go back to the Eastern Palace with me. I am already the prince, and no one will do anything to you."

Zhou Gongyu still held a glimmer of hope and was almost half coaxing and half persuading him.

"Your Highness, please don't tell Prime Minister Jiang and the others, as if I haven't seen me today, I don't want to go back."

She finally made up her mind to say these words, and nervously waited for Zhou Gongyu's answer.

When she met Zhou Gongyu again, her heart was always tight, afraid that he would tell Jiang Hengzhi.

The people in the Jiang family should be living a good life now. She doesn't want to have anything to do with the past at all.

After a while of silence, Zhou Gongyu replied: "Okay."

Her eyes lit up, and the joy at the tip of her eyebrows was like the budding peach blossoms on the branches, vivid and gorgeous, so cute that it makes people unable to take their eyes off.

No matter how Zhou Gongyu convinced himself, he had to admit that Xiaoman's joy really had nothing to do with him.

When she saw him, there was only panic on her face.

But it was obvious... it was not like this.

She would smile and shout "Brother Gongyu", pull his sleeves and ask him for malt sugar, and she would have countless questions to ask him.

But just now, she called "Your Highness".

He smiled at another man and called him Han Er Ge.

For a moment, the chest cavity was like ice water, bringing a bitter stinging pain, constantly squeezing his reason.

Xiaoman looked down at his toes, trying hard to prevent himself from looking at Zhou Gongyu's expression.

"I want to go back to find Han Er Ge."

His fingers were tightened under his sleeves, and his knuckles turned white until they turned white, but he seemed to be unable to feel the pain of his nails embedded in his palms.

I wanted to make a smile, but found that I couldn't do it at all.

Zhou Gongyu had a very good appearance, and when he looked at him, he felt that his demeanor was as deep as a distant mountain.

There is always a shallow and hypocritical smile on my face, which is really confusing.

But now, he no longer laughed, even his voice was a little fragile and hoarse, like a mourning cry of a rotten branch about to be crushed.

"Do you like him?"

When Xiaoman was asked, he didn't know what to answer. A shout suddenly came from a distance: "Brother Prince!"

Ling Yang was left behind for a long time, but the reminiscence between the two still failed to end. With Han Shi's repeated provocations and instigation, she still couldn't help but come to inquire about the situation.

Zhou Gongyu had a tense string in his heart. The sudden appearance of Ling Yang made him breathe a sigh of relief, and the tense string slowly loosened.

He regretted it after asking that sentence. Instead of getting an unwanted answer, it is better not to ask and just pretend that he doesn't know.

Xiaoman was the first to be kind to him sincerely and would carefully share everything about him.

In his life that could be called dull and boring, this is the only comfort he can see in the darkness.

He is not worthy of Xiaoman.

"Xiaoman, I won't force you, nor will I tell anyone in the Jiang family that you shouldn't leave, okay?"

But now he wanted to hold on to the light, whether he was sleepy or wanted, he could no longer watch her leave.

Before Lingyang could approach, he was looked at Zhou Gongyu coldly, and his steps stopped immediately.

——

Han Shi was extremely anxious and wanted to pull Xiaoman out immediately. However, Jiang Susi insisted on asking questions. He was so annoyed that he complained, "How could I know? I don't know that Xiaoman knows the prince?"

What's the use of asking me?"

After saying that, there was another silence, and Jiang Susi didn't know what to do.

This time he went to Beijing just to top the spring exam, and he never thought that he would get involved in such a thing.

Just now, when they saw Xiaoman's expression, they seemed to be afraid of the prince's approaching. How much involvement the two of them had before was not something they could guess randomly.

Jiang Susi's face was solemn: "What do you want?"

"Didn't you see Xiaoman reluctantly just now?

Anyway, she doesn't want to, no one can force her."

After Han Shi finished speaking, he saw the figures of the two gradually approaching.

Xiaoman ran to Han Shi, and the lily-colored skirt was like a blooming flower, which suddenly reminded him of many old things.

The difference is that at that time, Xiaoman ran towards him, but at this moment, he left him and ran towards another man.

Just thinking this way, the jealousy and unwillingness surged in his chest were like a tide, and he wanted to drown and swallow him.

When he walked here, Zhou Gongyu's eyes were still cold, but his face had returned to his usual calm smile.

"I was just rude."

Han Shi was so angry that he also laughed hypocritically: "Your Highness is joking, I am the one who is rude."

Xiaoman glanced at the two of them and asked Jiang Susi quietly: "Where has Ruoru been?"

Jiang Susi sighed: "She may feel a little uncomfortable. It's not your fault. Don't take it to heart, she will definitely be able to think about it."

When Xiaoman heard this, he suddenly felt something was wrong, so he threw them away and went to find Jiang Ruoruo.

When the two maids in the yard saw Xiaoman coming, they looked at each other strangely.

The door was closed tightly, and she knocked on it, but no one in the room answered.

Xiaoman turned around and asked, "Is Ruoruo in the house?"

The maid's expression was complicated: "I'm here, I won't let anyone in. Miss Xiaoman helps to persuade him."

In such a big place as Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, things like Xiaoman and Zhou Gongyu happened, and they spread everywhere in less than a stick of incense.

Now everyone knows that the prince hugged this young lady of unknown origin as soon as she met.

Xiaoman heard the depressing sobs in the room and his hand knocking on the door stopped.

"Ruoru?"

The people in the room ignored her and stood for a long time. She couldn't continue to bother Jiang Ruoruo, so she turned around and left silently.

The maid whispered and watched Xiaoman go away.

"This lady is really awesome. I thought I was the orphan from where I picked up the orphan, but it actually made the prince's heart as soon as I met."

"That's right, maybe he's a skilled person. He looks so well-behaved and decent, so he's a lord..."

The door was opened with a snap, which scared the two of them.

Jiang Ruoruo's red eyes were still filled with water, and his face glared at the two of them angrily: "I criticize my master, go and ask for a punishment of ten feet."

After saying that, he closed the door again, and the force was so strong that it startled the birds on the branches.

Jiang Susi learned that there was a rift between the two, and did not know how to persuade them. He was also afraid that Han Shixin would speak out quickly, which made Ruoru even more dissatisfied.

"This matter is not your fault. Ruruo is not a person who doesn't understand the truth. If you explain it to her well, she won't blame you.

Han Shi and I went there, but I was afraid that she would think we were biased towards you, and it would be even more difficult to solve it by then."

Xiaoman didn't expect Jiang Susi didn't ask her what was going on.

"Don't my brother ask me what happened between me and the prince?"

Jiang Susi sighed: "No matter what, it is a thing of the past.

Han Shi also said that when you first met you, you were frozen to the point where you were frozen in the heavy snow. If he hadn't met you, you might have lost your life.

I guess the past is not a good thing worth remembering. If you don’t like it, I will naturally not mention it.”

She lowered her head and her eyes gradually turned red.

"Okay, why are you crying?"

Jiang Susi patted her shoulder and comforted her.

There was no moon at night, it was pitch black and silent, and the few sounds of insects seemed extremely clear.
